Filter by:Acute Graft-versus-Host-Disease (GVHD) is an important cause of morbidity and mortality after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). This study aims to determine if any of three new GVHD prophylaxis approaches improves the rate of GVHD and relapse free survival at one year after transplant compared to the current standard prophylaxis regimen.
Despite improvements in outcomes after Hematopoietic Cell Transplantation (HCT) for Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) and Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS), the risk of relapse remains high and is the most common cause of mortality after HCT. Moreover, treatment options for relapse after HCT are limited. Strategies to reduce relapse with maintenance therapy in patients who are at high risk are needed to improve survival. 5-aza is a hypomethylating agent that has shown immune modulating properties that may enhance the graft-versus-leukemia (GVL) effect, including upregulation of tumor-associated antigen and costimulatory molecule expression. Moreover, 5-aza has properties that suggest protection against graft-versus-host disease (GVHD) as well. Preliminary data shows that it is well tolerated and effective in clinical use for the treatment of AML or MDS relapse after HCT, as well as for maintenance therapy. This study will evaluate the use of 5-aza for maintenance after HCT in patients with AML or MDS with risk factors that are associated with a high risk for relapse.
This Phase I clinical trial is evaluating chimeric-antigen receptor (CAR) T-cells (CM-CS1 T cells) which recognize NKG2D-ligands on the surface of cancer cells. This study evaluates the safety and feasibility of administering a single intravenous dose of CM-CS1 CAR T-cells to patients with AML, MDS-RAEB and Multiple Myeloma.
To identify the maximum tolerated dose or recommended dose for further development of volasertib in combination with azacitidine in Japanese patients with myelodysplastic syndromes or chronic myelomonocytic leukemia, and evaluate the safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics and the preliminary efficacy of this combination.
This is an open-label, multicenter, prospective pilot study of CDX-301 with or without plerixafor as a stem cell mobilizer for allogeneic transplantation (stem cells that come from another person). HLA-matched sibling healthy volunteers (donors) and patients with protocol specified hematologic malignancies (recipients) will be enrolled.
Randomized Phase II Trial of Intensive Chemotherapy With or Without Volasertib (BI 6727) in Patients With Newly Diagnosed High-Risk Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) and Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML)
Treatment of patients with WHO defined IPSS int 2 and high risk MDS , AML with 20-30% marrow blasts and CMML type 2, after failure of azacitidine or decitabine exposure for at least 6 courses, or relapse after initial response.
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if 5-azacitidine and sorafenib can help to control the disease in patients with Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) and high risk Myelodisplastic Syndrome (MDS) with FLT3-ITD mutation. The safety of this drug combination will also be studied.
The purpose of this study is to find a new way to treat Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML), Myelodysplastic Syndrome (MDS) and Chronic Myelomonocytic Leukemia (CMML). All the drugs are used to treat AML and MDS but are not usually combined together. The investigators are looking at both the safety and Efficacy of each combination.
The goal of this clinical research study is to compare the response rates of patients receiving decitabine alone, decitabine with carboplatin, and decitabine with arsenic trioxide in patients with AML or MDS.
